At Star Group, sustainability isn’t just an ideal – it is a commitment backed by action. As a full-service propane, HVAC and energy services provider operating brands such as Petro Home Services, Meenan, Leffler Energy, and Griffith Energy Services, Star Group continuously seeks opportunities to make a positive environmental impact. One of its standout initiatives, PetroGrowsGreen, took center stage during Earth Month 2025, transforming routine HVAC maintenance into meaningful contributions to global reforestation efforts.
Planting for a greener future.
Through the PetroGrowsGreen campaign, every HVAC tune-up scheduled in April resulted in a donation to One Tree Planted, a non-profit focused on reforestation. With each tree planted, Star Group customers directly contributed to cleaner air, healthier ecosystems, and a more sustainable future. The donations specifically supported reforestation projects across New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and other areas in the Appalachian region, helping to restore vital forest lands and mitigate carbon emissions.
Small changes, big impact.
Star Group understands that meaningful change often starts with small, everyday actions. While customers ensured their home comfort systems operated efficiently, they also participated in a broader movement—one that prioritizes environmental responsibility and community impact. The success of PetroGrowsGreen is a testament to how companies and individuals alike can work together to create lasting positive change.
Committing to a smarter approach to home energy solutions.
Beyond reforestation efforts, Star Group continues to explore sustainable energy solutions for its customers. Among the cleaner-burning energy options it provides, propane stands out as an efficient and environmentally friendly choice. Producing fewer greenhouse gas emissions than traditional fuels, propane helps households reduce their carbon footprint while maintaining reliable and cost-effective home energy.
Jeff Woosnam, President and CEO of Star Group, shares: “At Star Group, we recognize that sustainability is a shared responsibility. Through PetroGrowsGreen, our customers contributed to reforestation efforts that will benefit generations to come. We also remain committed to a net-zero carbon goal for our company by 2050 and to providing cleaner energy solutions like propane, ensuring that households can make environmentally responsible choices. Small actions today truly lead to big transformations tomorrow.”
By integrating sustainability efforts into its business model, Star Group continues to drive meaningful change—one tree, one customer, and one energy-conscious decision at a time.
